The Non-Poem

Kurt Philip Behm

My words won’t come

the silence reigns

I didn’t write

I couldn’t say

My page is blank

my pen is dry

The muse has gone

— my voice denied

        Kurt, I absolutely love this! The frustration is real, but the irony makes it wonderfully clever...the creative drought produced its own poem. Brilliant little piece, my friend! 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛
